Answer:

There are 32 home sites in the plot

Explanation:

Unit rate are defined as the rates are expressed as a quantity as 1 such as 4 meter per second or 4 km/hr.

As per the statement:

A builder has an 8-acre plot divided into 1/4 acre home sites.

By definition of unit rate;

Unit rate per home site =
(8)/((1)/(4) ) = 8 * 4 = 32

⇒ Number of home sites = 32

Thus, there are 32 home sites in the plot
